warning: long post ahead

you just have to love how life works out sometimes. its all a balance of karma, the force, dumb luck, whatever youd like to call.

ive been seriously thinking about this JDM swap for a week now. last night i finally convinced myself that if i want to play, i gotta pay.

so... after work tonight i stopped by the bank to ask them about sending the money transfer, protection, how long it takes, etc. all of the info they gave me was great, and everything was set to go. i just wanted to come home and email the seller that the transfer was going through.

i get home, and my neighbor matt is washing his car. i say "nice day for a car wash" and he replies "yeah, your car is looking pretty nice". i think to myself, you have no fucking clue.

then he says "did you get the letter about the assesment?"

everything freezes for a second, and i say "huh?"

long story short, cause i know im ranting... the city of maple grove is charging every home owner in my development $1580 to repave the streets and do some utility work.

on the same fucking day i decide to go for it, this comes around. as of right now, i have to pay the city for this. ive called my real estate broker because this assessment should have been planned, BEFORE i bought my house, and i should have been told this was pending. maybe i can get out of this.

regardless... the car is on hold. it runs, it gets me from A to B. so right now, shes going to ride pretty, but slow as usual.

im not mad, im just disappointed. life just works in mysterious ways.
